Finished Skyrim's Dawnguard DLC. There's still 4 achievements left but I felt like finishing the story was a good time to take a break.

So I started up Assassin's Creed: Revelations. What did they do to Desmond's face?! I haven't had a lot of time to sit down with it yet but it's all right so far. Same issues as before, more of the same stuff, etc. I'm looking forward to playing as Altair again, whenever that finally happens.

YES. My boyfriend and I play this a lot, and when I was in Japan in April I picked up the newest release of it for more characters to mess around with. We also like playing Samurai & Dynasty Warriors, but Sengoku Basara has a great extra wacky feel to it.

MSF isn't a 3rd party Nintendo exclusive right? That series needs a PSN/XBLA port.

Also I had NO CLUE they were working on a Silent Hill game. Too bad it's on the VITA.

As far as I know MSF is DS/Wii-ware exclusive under the same deal that Cave Story was. So the best we can hope for is a steam port (which I would take...), which is pretty bogus.

Yeah...that silent hill game...I dunno man. I guess they've built up enough street cred to dive in without questioning it too much, but an isometric Seiken Detsetsu style RPG as a silent hill game? I dunno man...

It will still be better than Downpour....lmao.

Also, Wayforward is making that Adventure Time game. WHY AREN'T WE GETTING A BUNDLE WITH A 3DS THAT LOOKS LIKE BMO. I WOULD KILL A MAN FOR ONE. SEVERAL MEN EVEN.

My girlfriend got me a PSVita for my birthday. I've been taking it everywhere I go, thankfully the vehicle I work out of has outlets built into it. Score!

She got Uncharted: Golden Abyss with it, and then I bought P3P a few days later. I've been loving P3P so much.

Now about 2 months ago I bought ME2 and 3 for my PS3 and couldn't bring my PS3 and all accessories with me to Germany on my initial trip. Long story short everything is on a boat somewhere and I am JONESING to get back into ME2. I was loving every second of that game, even if I didn't know what I was doing. In fact I'm pretty sure I'm playing my character build incorrectly. I was using a gun way too much for a force user.

I also have Skyrim for the PS3 now to get into and I have to catch up on me Assassin's Creed series to get ready for 3 (which is going to be /amazing/).

Finally got a 3DS, and Kid Icarus: Uprising. (I was thinking of waiting for the XL, but since it doesn't have a 2nd analog built in, there goes my interest.) Great game, I'm close to the end already, but... if anyone else has the game, have they noticed their left trigger creaking/squeaking due to the game's heavy demand for its usage? (It doesn't seem to affect the gameplay, it's just... noisy.)

I gotta say - even though I don't even use the 3D, I'm kind of impressed with the 3DS. It just feels better than my regular DS. I haven't played it enough to be more articulate about it than that. Don't know if I will get my own at this point or just continue to mooch off of my son. Definitely getting a Vita for AC:Liberation though.

Meanwhile, I've been playing Final Fantasy XIII - Chapter 11: The Game for weeks because:

1. I want to do the side missions but suspect that once I finish the game I won't go back.
2. I refuse to just flat out grind.
3. I refuse to upgrade Lightning's Weapon because I am too cheap to buy the one I want when I know that I can pick it up for free in Chapter 12 and I am too cheap to upgrade two weapons for her.
4. I have a strong, you're-not-the-boss-of-me reflex. "You think this is too hard for me? You think I'm afraid of a challenge? Just watch me."

So I'm usually fighting way above my pay grade and it takes me forever. Totally my own fault.

-FYI on FF13-some of those sidequests you CAN'T be until you finish the game. So keep that in mind.
-I'm holding off until the 3DS gigante drops because Mrs. SW824's current one gets mad uncomfortable in my hands after playing it for more than 20 minutes. This is a severe first worst problem, if I'm going to drop $200+ on a handheld, I rather not be in pain while playing it.
-My friends and I played hell of fighting games this past weekend, as it was NOTAKON weekend, and that is what we do instead of dying of heat in Baltimore. This year's roulette of games consisted of Skullgirls (Which I <3), Virtual Fighter 5:FS, Time Killers, Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3, World Heroes, some other Neo Geo game I can't remember which was terrible, and Soul Calibur. I actually won the tourney this year, which was dope, because I stopped being sober 2 games in.
-Beat Penny Arcade episode 3, which ended on a cliff hanger, and got DARK. Real dark. The narrative for this game is fairly impressive for a $5 retro J-rpg. I started The Darkness 2: The Darkening, which seems kind of shallow, but I'm liking it so far.

I really do enjoy playing on a whole range of games throughout my day. At the moment, I'm playing on Animal Crossing Wild World, Kingdom Hearts 358/ 2 days, Hot Wheels: Battle Force 5 and a couple of the Professor Layton games.
